Yeshua - The Story of Jesus [or Not]Yeshua - The Story of Jesus: "And finally, in this very brief introductory course into the nature of the Universe, I tell you truly, there is a Source of all that exists. Call it God. The Father/Mother. Universal Mind. Consciousness. It exists. It created all of this. It creates still. That is what It does. It is as impersonal as the heat from a star. It is as personal as your dearest friend and most intimate lover. All that you are, God is. But you are not yet all that God is. A paradox, yes, but a beautiful one to solve. That, my friends, is the journey we are all on." [now, the story top: ]Yeshua - The Story of JesusI came across this channelled story at a newsgroup in late November 2004 and found it very interesting and stimulating.Checking the newsgroup every day for another installment was like going on a treasure hunt. Then when the 9th part was posted there was a short notice about the author and channeller.ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS: We are all, truly, one. And the simple fact is that I exist as a person, and as a writer, and as a channel because of the countless contributions of others. And so I would like to offer a word of thanks to, acknowledgement of -- and also recommend -- those authors and books before me over the years that added to anything of value I may have written and received here: The books of Paul Ferrini. The books of Alice Bailey. The mystic school of Astara. Tobias and Crimson Circle. The Kabbalah. The Kyballian by the Yogi Society. "The Urantia Book". "The Impersonal Life" by Joseph Benner. "Mystic Christianity" by Yogi Ramacharaka. Kryon. �The Magian Gospel Of Brother Yeshua� by Carol Magus. "The New Testament". "Conversations With God" by Neale Donald Walsch. "Darwin�s Black Box" by Michael J. Behe. "The Holographic Universe" by Michael Talbot. "The Aquarian Gospel of Jesus Christ" by Levi. "The Way of the Essenes" by Anne Meurois-Givaudan. The White Eagle books by Grace Cooke�and many, many others. And a very special thanks to all my friends and guardians and guides and angels on this, and the other side, of the veil. And, of course, dear Yeshua, thank you.Namaste�,BradleyYeshua - Part 1Welcome. That you for being present to receive me. For being...open. And perhaps you are expecting a fraud? I�d be cautious as well, if I were you. But when all is said and done, there is only one barometer of truth and that resides in the human heart. Place what you read here, there.That is why I am here, to speak to your hearts. It is why you are reading this and not somewhere else. Of all the choices you could have made this day, the fact that you chose to be here is simply because you are supposed to be here. One of the ideas I hope to extend to you is the possibility that there are no accidents in this Universe. The Universe is not unlike an extraordinarily elaborate house of cards, remove one and it all collapses. Remember the table of the elements on the wall of every high school chemistry class? Has it ever occurred to any one of you how seemingly unbelievable that chart is? Take the atomic structure of hydrogen. Remove one atom and the structure crumbles. Remove one atom from hydrogen and the sun stops shining. Take one atom out of H20, and there are no oceans. There are no tears. Yet every element is up there, on that chart, in perfect balance to allow for life on this planet. Just ask a statistician what the odds are of all those seemingly random photons and electrons coming together to create this planet, you and me. And if there is intelligence behind something so small, do you think it less likely there is an intelligence active in your life?So, what of Darwin and evolution? He got it right, and yes, evolution exists. At the biological level. Not at the bimolecular/chemical level. The molecular make-up of the tiniest, microscopic �hairs� which make up the flagellum which allows an individual cell to move about requires chains of multiple chemical and electrical compounds which must come into existence at the same moment or the entire structure falls apart. It�s the analogy of the three-legged stool; remove one leg and the stool collapses. These extraordinarily complex systems could not have randomly evolved from primordial pond muck suddenly struck by lightening.In any case, you are here with me and I am grateful. But why not a temple or church or mountaintop? Why not the Vatican? The Holy Mount? Frankly, there are not many places that would have me, not like this, not as I truly am, not unlike you. As they have for centuries, they like the idea of me, just not the reality -- And I say that without rancor. Each has served its purpose in the Grand Scheme Of Things. And truth be told, reading some of the words I am supposed to have said and practices I am supposed to have endorsed, I would not want to spend much time with me either.All creation is a stage, and upon this stage of creation called Earth, one of the most exquisite pageants, one of the most delightful, one of the most difficult and challenging and profound dramas -- and ofttimes, comedies -- in all of creation is being enacted.I�m here to try and help guide you through some of the plots and subplots of this drama. And during this journey, I will try to shed some light on my life, so that in turn, we might shed some light on your lives. I�ll hope to remind us of who we truly are, where we came from, and where we are going.I also hope to speak of more now than I was able to then. Then, I had to use parables suitable for the time. You now have an additional 2,000 years of information and experience which I can draw upon.And finally, I may, perhaps, anger some of you. That will be a regret on my part. There�s already enough divisiveness over my life and my death.So, is what I shall offer you here the truth? Yes. Is it your truth? Perhaps. Perhaps not. Whatever helps you through the murky waters towards Love, is your truth. And that�s as it should be. Like the Universe, truth evolves on a spiral, and just when you think you�re back where you started, you realize you�ve progressed to a higher state. And my friends, the Universe is large enough to embrace a multitude of truths. The choices are yours.Before we get started on my life. How about a brief introduction to a course I�ll call �Universe 101?�I trust by now that most of you understand that the Source Of All That Is is not an old, Caucasian male sitting on a throne. Nor, in truth, is the Source female. The Source is both, is neither. From the Source comes the two. Comes the polarity. The duality. The male and the female. The dark and the light. Matter and anti-matter.You are not what you think you are. You are atoms and molecules and electrons combined to form flesh and bones and blood. Within that you are quarks and sub-particles of energy vibrating at immense speeds. Within that you are Light divided as color and slowed into sound. Within that you are thought. Divine Thought. The Creator contemplating Itself.Rub your hands together vigorously. And shake them out vigorously. Then rub them together again. And if you place your two palms opposite each other about six inches, then close your eyes and move one palm in slow circular motions, you will soon feel energy moving against the opposite palm. What you are feeling is your energy body. Some call it the etheric body. Beyond that is your emotional body, then your mental body, and then your spiritual body, each a duplicate of the other, each vibrating at ever higher and higher frequencies. We are not unlike the wooden Russian dolls, one body inside of another, on and on. And if you are just atoms and electrons swirling about, ask yourself why it is that you hold a form at all? Why are you not just a billowing mass of moving energy? You are, quite literally, light slowed down until it coalesces into matter, held in the form you recognize as yourself by thought, by a Divine Blueprint, if you will, that already exists in the Mind Of God. And it is perfect.There is a scientific theory which is a correct statement of how the Universe works. It is called non-locality. And it says that there is no such thing as distance. That thought is transmitted and received instantaneously, and that it is sent and received by everything everywhere, all at the same time. Think a thought and it has reached the end of the Universe and returned to you in the same instant. Why do I tell this to you? Because it is the scientific truth behind the spiritual truth that each of you are your brother�s and your sister�s keeper. Your thoughts and your actions effect the whole of creation. My sisters and brothers, you are truly all one. You are not separate from each other as you believe.And just so you know: You are not separate from all life that exists in the physical and spiritual Universe. I say this to you with the matter-of-factness that belies its truth: The Universe is teaming with life. It is a vast ocean filled with intelligent life, and yes, it visits here quite often. And yes, that contact is coming, and quite soon.Everything in the universe is conscious, in one way or another, to one degree or another. Animals have intelligence and emotions. They love and desire to be loved. Plants feel pain and understand joy. They ache to be acknowledged and heard. The mineral kingdom is very much aware of its place in the universe. Even the chair you sit on has awareness flowing through it. Did I not say, �In my Father�s House are many mansions?�And finally, in this very brief introductory course into the nature of the Universe, I tell you truly, there is a Source of all that exists. Call it God. The Father/Mother. Universal Mind. Consciousness. It exists. It created all of this. It creates still. That is what It does. It is as impersonal as the heat from a star. It is as personal as your dearest friend and most intimate lover. All that you are, God is. But you are not yet all that God is. A paradox, yes, but a beautiful one to solve. That, my friends, is the journey we are all on.
